A Lack Of stars
The Claim:

The Explanation:
|
One compelling argument for the moon landing hoax is the total lack of stars in any of the photographic/video evidence. There are no clouds on the moon, so stars are perpetually visible and significantly brighter than what we see through the filter of Earth’s atmosphere. Some photographs are high-quality, however, and yet still no stars are shown. Certainly eerie, considering you can take pictures of stars from Earth in much lower quality and still see them.
Some theorists argument that NASA found it impossible to map out the exact locations of all stars for the hoax, therefore they simply left them out. |
An explanation for this phenomena is that since the foreground (the moon) is so reflective and was so brilliantly lit by the sun, it obscured any light coming from the stars from the camera.
NASA intentionally falling back on an excuse that the quality of the photographs washes them out. |
